Nothing Is More Like A Wise Man

Nothing Is More Like A Wise Man Than A Fool Who Holds His Tongue.

We Do Not Very Often Come Across Opportunities For Exercising Strength, Magnanimity, Or Magnificence; But Gentleness, Temperance, Modesty, And Humility, Are Graces Which Ought To Colour Everything We Do. There May Be Virtues Of A More Exalted Mould, But... These Are The Most Continually Called For In Daily Life.

You Learn To Speak By Speaking, To Study By Studying, To Run By Running, To Work By Working; And Just So, You Learn To Love By Loving. All Those Who Think To Learn In Any Other Way Deceive Themselves.

Examine From Time To Time What Are The Dominant Passions Of Your Soul, And Having Ascertained This, Mold Your Life, So That In Thought, Word, And Deed You May As Far As Possible Counteract Them.

By Giving Yourself To God, You Not Only Receive Himself In Exchange, But Eternal Life As Well.
